Chapter CHAPTER 178
Nash avoided all contact with others. Quincy stood at the doorway, politely informing Miranda, “Miss Lewis, Mr. York is resting. He said you don’t have to worry about him and should go back to the set.” Miranda responded, “That’s alright. I’ve already taken a leave of absence and the director has approved it. I’ll come back after he’s discharged.”
Quincy found himself in a dilemma. He gently commented, “Mr. York needs rest.”
Miranda glanced at the ward, understanding what he meant.
She wasn’t upset and said, “Could you please give this to Nash for me? I’ll bring over Sally’s cooked meals when I return.”
“Of course, Miss Lewis,” Quincy replied, taking the document.
When he saw the bold letters on the paper, he too was shocked. Miranda said goodbye and left. Her assistant asked, “Why didn’t you go inside? It’s a rare opportunity.”
“No rush,” Miranda replied. “There will be plenty more opportunities in the future. I should go back to the York residence first.”
She had more important matters to attend to.
Inside the ward, Quincy hesitated, unsure whether to hand over the document.
Nash kept his eyes closed, but sensing Quincy’s presence nearby. He asked, “What’s wrong?”
Reluctantly, Quincy handed him the document. “Mr. York, it appears to be from Nina,” he said.
Nash opened his eyes and looked down.
The words “Divorce Agreement” stood out starkly. His expression dropped, and he asked, “When was this delivered?”
Quincy replied, “Miss Lewis gave it to me. It seems to be from Nina to her.”
Nash held the divorce agreement in disbelief. It wasn’t until he opened the document and saw Nina’s signature that reality hit him.
His already grim expression turned even darker. Divorce-she said it and meant it. How liberating! Nina truly delivered quite the surprise! Nash’s grip tightened, his knuckles turning white. Displeased, he crumpled the divorce agreement and tossed it away.
Nina arrived at the police station to find Lily and Sue, who had been there for hours facing allegations of slander, public disorder, and extortion.
Lily, eager to see Nina, greeted her by saying, “Nina, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for you.”
Sue, desperate for forgiveness, pleaded with her cousin, “Nina, my mom and I deeply regret what we did. We are truly sorry. Please don’t blame us.” However, Nina remained unmoved by their words and responded coldly, “I’m here to provide my statement, not to listen to your grievances!”
She turned her attention to the police and asked, “When can we begin?”
The police inquired, “Are you absolutely certain that you want to press charges against them?”
Without hesitation, Nina replied firmly, “Yes, I am sure!”
With Nina remaining unmoved by any pleas and showing complete disregard for her dignity, Lily shouted once again. “Nina, I have begged you so many times, yet you still want to sue me and your cousin. You’ll face retribution! Your uncle will never forgive you!”
Knowing that their behavior would not change, Nina realized that forgiving them this time would only result in more trouble in the future. She was not like her father; being soft-hearted would only make her life worse. “Say what you want,” Nina responded. “Let us follow the law.”
The police then directed Nina, saying, “Miss Walker, this way, please.”
Feeling indignant and realizing that forgiveness was out of reach,

to lash out,
you heartless person, you
die!”
